replying to @theplanetd @theplanetd A1: As someone who studied at NYSID and now teaches interior designers there, it matters a lot. BUT not when comfort/function are sacrificed to trendiness, which we have suffered #TravelSkills

A1 the design of the spacious rooms @conradchicago made it one of my favorites. A place to sit by the windows, a table to work or dine, bathrooms with 2 sinks! All these factors plus first-class service & modern lighting made it feel like a home #TravelSkills @ChooseChicago

replying to @JohnnyJet @JohnnyJet Wow, so that's an impact. Other injuries include knees and shins from those little benches in front of beds #travelskills

A1 Hi all: Design isn't my first priority, but classic design does make a hotel stay truly special, like Le Manoir Richelieu in Quebec #travelskills

replying to @LandLopers @LandLopers At the Thompson in Toronto they managed to create a sliding pocket door to the bathroom ā impeded from closing fully by the baseboard. Absurd. #TravelSkills

Hotel design is important to me. As a flight attendant, I donāt want to stay anywhere that reminds me of work. I like extreme accommodations - high end, low end, as long as itās not middle of the road basic. I like to feel the local energy in my hotel room. #TravelSkills #Hotels https://t.co/6jStlELMVh

replying to @BestWestern @BestWestern A2 My wife (@NatalieDiScala) is the hotel design expert so youāll have to ask her, but I love the new design of @Boeingās 787 and @Airbusās A350 aircrafts. Especially the window shades and touchless bathrooms. #TravelSkills

A2. Brands with eye for design? The ones who make it fun of intriguing. Big fan of W Hotels, Virgin America (RIP), Aloft, SFO Term. 2. #TravelSkills @WScottsdale

replying to @travelskills @travelskills A1 Itās extremely important to me. If Iām traveling with my family, I need enough space to make us feel together but not squeezed together. For travel with my hubby, I need a cozier space with the basics. This summer @AloftHotels met the latter need with style. #TravelSkills

I donāt follow brands. I hate the word ābrand.ā Just talking about ābrandsā makes me angry because most of the time it feels fake - phony. Thatās probably because Iāve worked in the airline industry for over 20 years where wearing a new scarf equates to new brand #TravelSkills https://t.co/mtIUvACl9n

replying to @BestWestern @BestWestern TIP If a hotel room isnāt designed well or has some obstacles between the bed and the bathroom, be sure to use your phoneās flashlight or bring a nightlight so you donāt trip on an out-of-place piece of furniture. Iām speaking from experience. #TravelSkills
